Materials our customers can pick from

- Printed poster (canvas material): A poster is a printed sheet of canvas paper with a slight surface structure, which reminds the actual masterpiece. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of around 2-6 cm round about the print to facilitate the framing with a custom frame.
- Canvas print: The canvas print, not to be confused with a canvas painting, is a digital image printed directly on canvas material. A canvas print of your favorite work of art will allow you to transform your art print into a large artpiece like you would see in a gallery. Hanging your canvas print: Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without the use of extra wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for any type of wall.
- Aluminium print (aluminium dibond): These are metal prints on alu dibond with a true depth effect. For our Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your favorite artwork right onto the surface of the white-primed aluminum material.
- Print on acrylic glass: The print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a print on plexiglass, makes an artwork into magnificient home décor. Additionally, the acrylic print offers a distinct alternative option to dibond and canvas fine art prints.

The Old Testament tells the story of the people of Babel who wanted to build a tower that would reach to heaven. God punished them for their pride: he confused their common language so they could no longer understand one another. This is one of the earliest painted depictions of this story; it also affords a fairly reliable glimpse of late medieval building practices.
